Summary

CVE-2026-6473

Integer wraparound in multiple PostgreSQL server features allows an
application input provider to cause the server to undersize an allocation
and write out-of-bounds.

CVE-2026-6474

Externally-controlled format string in PostgreSQL timeofday() function
allows an attacker to retrieve portions of server memory, via crafted
timezone zones

CVE-2026-6475

Symlink following in PostgreSQL pg_basebackup plain format and in pg_rewind
allows an origin superuser to overwrite local files, that hijack the
operating system account. It will remain the case that starting the server
after these commands implicitly trusts the origin superuser, due to features
like shared_preload_libraries.

CVE-2026-6477

Use of inherently dangerous function PQfn(..., result_is_int=0, ...) in
PostgreSQL libpq lo_export(), lo_read(), lo_lseek64(), and lo_tell64()
functions allows the server superuser to overwrite a client stack buffer
with an arbitrarily-large response.
